Fuel Supply
Because of variable climates and geographical considerations, contact the local fuel supplier for fuel system planning and installation. Figure 2-7 lists the recommended fuel ratings for natural gas and LP vapor fuels. Verify that the output pressure from the primary gas utility (or LP tank) pressure regulator is 1.7--2.7 kPa (7--11 in. water column) and that the utility gas meter flow rate is sufficient to supply the generator set plus all other gas-consuming appliances. Figure 2-8 shows the flow rate required for the generator set and Figure 2-9 shows the fuel consumption. Contact the fuel supplier for flow rate information or a gas meter upgrade. Figure 2-1 shows the location of the fuel inlet connection. Use flexible sections to prevent fuel line breakage caused by vibration. Remove the housing end panel and hold the fuel solenoid valve with a wrench when tightening the fuel connections. Protect all fuel lines from machinery or equipment contact, adverse weather conditions, and environmental damage.
2.6.2
Fuel Pipe Size
Ensure that the natural gas pipe size and length meet the specifications in Figure 2-10. Measure the pipe length from the primary gas pressure regulator to the pipe connection on the generator set fuel inlet. Add 2.4 m (8 ft.) to the measured length for each 90 degree elbow. Compare the pipe size and length with the chart in Figure 2-10. If the piping is longer than the maximum length shown for that size, replace it with the specified size before proceeding.

Appendix B Common Hardware Application Guidelines Use the information below and on the following pages to identify proper fastening techniques when no specific reference for reassembly is made. Bolt/Screw Length: When bolt/screw length is not given, use Figure 1 as a guide. As a general rule, a minimum length of one thread beyond the nut and a maximum length of 1/2 the bolt/screw diameter beyond the nut is the preferred method.
Steps for common hardware application: 1. Determine entry hole type: round or slotted. 2. Determine exit hole type: fixed female thread (weld nut), round, or slotted. For round and slotted exit holes, determine if hardware is greater than 1/2 inch in diameter, or 1/2 inch in diameter or less. Hardware that is greater than 1/2 inch in diameter takes a standard nut and SAE washer. Hardware 1/2 inch or less in diameter can take a properly torqued whiz nut or spiralock nut. See Figure 2.
Washers and Nuts: Use split lock washers as a bolt locking device where specified. Use SAE flat washers with whiz nuts, spiralock nuts, or standard nuts and preloading (torque) of the bolt in all other applications. See Appendix C, General Torque Specifications, and other torque specifications in the service literature.
3. Follow these SAE washer rules after determining exit hole type: a. Always use a washer between hardware and a slot.
Preferred Nut/Bolt Clearance 1
2
b. Always use a washer under a nut (see 2 above for exception). c. Use a washer under a bolt when the female thread is fixed (weld nut). 4. Refer to Figure 2, which depicts the preceding hardware configuration possibilities.
